Anniversary Mush!

A story in pictures:

I met my husband when I was 19 and he was 21.

When we started dating, it was his senior year and my sophomore year. That meant we were together for about eight months before diving into two years of long-distance. But we still found time to have fun together.

Four years ago today, we got married. I was 23 and he was 25. (My students freak out when they find out how young I was...but when you know, you know.) Since we come from different religious backgrounds, we got married in a
chapel on our college campus. The officiant: an English professor we
had in common!

During my first year of teaching, some of my kids Googled me and found this picture of us walking down the aisle. They said, "Miss. You're on the internet. Your face looks weird."

I said, "I know guys. That's what it looks like when I'm happy." (That first year of teaching was rough. My students now might think that face looks more familiar.)

We had the world's greatest party to celebrate. Our friends and family contributed their unique talents:
